A surf wave leisure business has been approved for a family farm at Hāwea Flat, following ten years’ development of surfable waves by entrepreneur and inventor Ross McCarthy.
YourWave - a wave created by water flowing over an inflatable form (like surfing on a bouncy castle) - will operate Monday to Friday during the summer months at the McCarthy farm off Gladstone Road, and winter operating hours will be trialled.
